nmbd question

[Anders C. Thorsen]

1. If you're not the current browse master, a nmblookup -M - should reveal
who is running the browse service ( and compeating for beeing the master )

2. there is a parameter "remote browse sync" which syncronizes the brose
lists of different networks. (altough a WINS server is favorable )
